My question was gonna be: I have some TV channels on my budget cable package that have audio on the 2 rear speakers. Other channels have it on the front.. How can I see if a system has an option to merge the audio into two rear speakers, no matter what the actual channel output is?
That way I can always hear the main audio from the two rear speakers.

I realized as I was about to pull the plug that the price had jumped back up to 400 in the process of checking out. I spent 10 minutes on the phone with a helpful rep and got the deal. Booya, cant really pass this up, the receiver alone is worth the 150, and its the whole kit and kaboodle with the speakers... #happydance

Wow. What indian givers Worst Buy is! I had it in my cart for $149.99 and was reading some reviews not thinking I had to hurry, then when I was going to check out it jumped to $399.99. I thought $149.99 was the sale price, but apparently once again it was a mistake and they took the deal away. Basically anything that's a really good price at Worst Buy is a price mistake. I wonder if the few people who ordered it at $149.99 will get theirs? Probably since I didn't get in.

I was trying to figure out what the model # of the amplifier is, but oh well...
